The partnership between CoreSite and STN gives clients access to data management experts, services and software defined network (SDN) appliances in reliable, highly interconnected, compliant data centers. CTOs need to manage resources so that all those activities occur, even in light of shrinking staff sizes and increases in ransomware or other cyberattacks. That effort puts more strain on IT engineers and admins, who often are fully occupied by “keeping the lights on,” making sure critical data is available while simultaneously solving problems with cloud services, while also working on projects to boost efficiencies and productivity. Resilience includes operating the business while fighting the threat. Resilience, the ability to quickly achieve baseline operational capabilities as you return to normal operations, better represents what modern BCDR looks like. The traditional approach to BCDR has changed as a result. Today, anything that puts the business out of operation is a disaster. In fact, many businesses can’t accept losing the data from a single transaction, and for critical services providers such as hospitals, police and fire departments or 911 call centers, breaks in availability could be tragic.įive or 10 years ago, business continuity/disaster recovery (BCDR) strategies were devised with floods or earthquakes in mind, events that lead to power failures. That’s because what once was considered “small stuff” – a few minutes of lost data, data corruption or brief disruption in business continuity – is anything but that. You’ve heard it before: “Don’t sweat the small stuff…and it’s all small stuff.” It’s a nice idea but might invoke an eye roll or two from CTOs and IT teams. STN is an IT managed services provider offering consultation and solutions ranging from data backup and disaster recovery to security and data center management. CoreSite welcomes Sabur Mian, CEO at STN Inc., as a guest blogger on Connect.
